This is a short sum-up table with the state of my goals in easier TLDR form. The table has only a general overview, with details expanded in the post.
| Current State/Other Selection Criterion | Goals Matching the Criterion |
|---|---|
| Ongoing | 4 (HBD in Savings - 5000 HBD, Social Goals, ZING Accumulation Target: 200k, Golem Overlord - Prestige 30) |
| Main Goals | 2 (HBD in Savings - 5000 HBD, Social Goals) |
| Goals | 2 (ZING Accumulation Target: 200k, Golem Overlord - Prestige 30) |
HBD in Savings at the Bull Market End Goal: 5,000 HBD
This is a goal inherited from last year, but mostly intended for this year.
First things first... I haven't added any HBD to savings this week. I purchased more HIVE in the first part of the week, then took a break in the last few days with the intention to add a bit to savings too since the price of HIVE rebounded a bit from the lows. Then... Trump, in his characteristic manner, dropped a tweet last night about the US Crypto Strategic Reserve. Crypto went crazy, with BTC up almost 10% and the 3 mentioned alts up between 30 to 60% (we later have seen counter-reactions to the nomination of these specific alts, or alts, in general) and the crypto market gave up some of its gains today.
But at the impression of his tweet from yesterday, and seeing HIVE hadn't moved compared to the rest (not that it would be included in their Strategic Reserve, but by contagion), I used the remaining HBD to buy HIVE instead of keeping it for savings, anticipating a retarded reaction. Had I waited until today, I would have purchased it cheaper, but well... Could have been the other way around if the market kept going up. Anyway, this is a DCA with small amounts, since I'm using my author rewards for this...
Current situation (nothing changed):
Social Goals
Here are my social goals in 2025:
- posting: at least 350 posts (max 1 per day) in 2025
- commenting: an average of 81.25 comments per week (11.6 per day); this is at the beginning of the year, the average needed will change throughout the year;
- publishing Week through Adrian's Lenses every week of 2025 (hopefully, maybe I can have 1 exception, under special circumstances)
Here's the current situation:
I have posted every day since the beginning of this year. Currently at 17.95% with 17.31% needed to be in the green.
I also started the week with 22,048 comments made. Ended the week with 22134 which means I made 86 comments last week, which is a little higher than the average needed. I currently need an average of 80 comments weekly to reach my target by the year end.
I published "Week through Adrian's Lenses" news roundup every week this year. Now at the 112th edition.
Golem Overlord - Prestige 30
Started with prestige 20 (and XP 10,544) in week 2.
Here's the current situation:
Current Prestige level: 21
Needed XP to level up to Prestige 22: 46,489
Remaining XP to Prestige 22: 2,476
Days to Prestige 22: ~2
When upgrading to next prestige level, 75% of my XP will be cut, and I'll start over the climb from there.
Started the week 35,270 XP, ended it with 44,013 XP. That's 8,743 XP gained last week (I'm almost sure now, the bonus for the weekly quest is about 2k XP - I didn't make it into the first 200 last week and I'm about 2k less in XP). I still need 2,476 XP to level up to Prestige 22. That's a little over 2 days, if nothing changes in my pace of converting reputation to XP.
Starting with week 8, I'm tracking the Faith level, since starting from 600+ level, it gives a bonus to maximum rep conversion (0.5% per level).
Last week's Faith level: 301.
Current Faith level: 312.
I need to grow my Faith level by at least 7 per week to get a little boost to max rep conversion close to the end of the year. From my experience so far, that would be very difficult, to level up faith daily, practically. Here you can see clearly that once you set a goal, "very difficult things" become achievable... Since I started tracking the Faith level, I increased it by 11 in a week instead of the minimum of 7 I had set as a target.
To have have Faith at level 600 at the beginning of Q4 (13 weeks before the year end), I need an average of 9.6 Faith level upgrades per week. Looks like this week I accomplished that.
This may be a too tougher goal for 2025, but we'll see. Worse case scenario, I'll extend it in 2026. But I'd like to see it completed in 2025. Let's see what I can do about it.
ZING Accumulation Target: 200k
For anyone who doesn't know, ZING is the token of the Holozing game (currently, it has no publicly released gameplay).
Slow and steady. Everything fine for now.
Here's the current situation:
Started the week with 89,042 and finished it with 91,727. Made 2,685 this week, and I need an average of 2,518 ZING weekly to achieve this goal. So far this seems reachable, but we'll see how it evolves. Slower week, and gains seem to be on a descending slope, so it may become a tougher goal toward the end...
